Cost: FREE / Must submit (1 - 5 designs they own to sell) to have a chance to enter.
Selection process:
Users will earn a variable amount of tickets depending on the following factors:
- Color level
- Amount of used designs they wish to sell
- Shop Games played (shops opened in the past)
- Attempts to enter
Users will earn tickets based on their power by their color level.
E.g. A gold-level user will earn 12 tickets.
The more designs you wish to sell, the more tickets you will get for a better chance.
1 = 3 tickets
2 = 5 tickets
3 = 10 tickets
4 = 20 tickets
5 = 40 tickets
Users who are currently in the shops game CANNOT enter the thrift shop game. Users who had a shop opened previously will have a lower chance of having a space in the thrift shop game. Below is the time period since users had an open shop.
Each day users who submit designs to enter will earn 5 tickets for every attempt to enter and do not get selected ensuring a high chance to make sure you enter. The maximum number of tickets that can be saved is 100 Tickets (14 days). These tickets do not expire and once you enter the game it resets to 0.
If you are a black level, selling 4 designs never opened a shop, and trying the 4th day to enter the thrift shop. You will have 10 + 20 + 60 + 15 = 105 tickets.
If someone who was a TV star, selling 5 designs, had a shop 3 weeks ago and entering for the 1st day. They will have 15 + 40 + 0 + 0 = 55 tickets.
This encourages users to never play the shop game a chance to play a fast 24-hour version.
BASICS
shops: Only 2 users compete each day.
Each game is 24 hours long.
Stock: This depends on the request and the request cannot be edited after submission or during the game. If you wanted to sell only 1 design, you only have 1 stock. Each stock despite value will be up randomly within 1 - 3 hours. Any of unsold designs will be kept in your design closet.
Limits
- Users can only sell at the value of 50% of the value of the design THEY purchased. If the user bought a design for 400T$, it can only be sold for 200T$.
-- Special circumstances 1T$/50T$ designs can be sold for the full value at 50T$ (1T$ designs will value to 50T$).
- Users can only sell GIFTED designs at the value of 25% of the value of the design. If the user was gifted a 300T$ design, it can only be sold for 75$ (50T$ is the minimum value in all cases)
-- Profits are shared between the user and the user who gifted the design. The user earns 25T$ and the gifter earns 25T$ for a 1T$ design.
--- If the user who gifted the design is banned or >30 days offline, the profits are gifted to moderation for community and group games.
The winner will become an "INVESTOR" in the shop's game to risk profit or loss. They will have the first 3 days to influence the actual 7-day shop game in the next weekly game. They can use some of all their profit in a shop. However, if the user invests, ALL T$ from their thrift shop profits are on HOLD until the shop game ends.
Prizes
Winner: 5K + 15T$ + INVESTOR
2nd: 1K + 5T$
What are the perks of investments? They provide shop owners an advantage to their week total for placement. Investors can drastically blindside shops if they do not get any investments. There will be 7 investors! A shop can only have 2 investors MAX. You may want to plead your worth to investors!
Profits if invested shop are placed at the end of the game:
1st: Invested T$ + 50%
2nd: Invested T$ + 30%
3rd: Invested T$ + 15%
4th: Invested T$ back (lose nothing)
5th: Lose all invested T$
6th: Lose all invested T$ + 5% of profits not invested
7th: Lose all invested T$ + 10%
8th: Lose all invested T$ + 15%
9th: Lose all invested T$ + 20%
10th: Lose all invested T$ + 25%
If the user invested 100T$ out of 200T$, the invested shop gets 8th place. They lose the 100T$ and (100 * 15% = 15) The user would earn 85T$ because of the risk. If they invested in a 1st place shop. they would have earned 100 + 50 + 100 (not used) = 250T$. Investments do include risks and losses!
The irrelevant stars player you did not expect to play, but definitely needed. Many of you know me as Robert / Socialize when Tengaged.es used to exist. I never made it this far in stars before and been playing genuinely with small groups of people and still avoided a lot of nominations since 15th. Some iconic shit I have done back in the old days:
1. Halloween/Dylan and I used to be good friends and he pissed me off so I changed his password on his sharpie1234 tengaged.es account for fun. I technically perm banned him myself 11 years ago. Back in 2011/12 lmao. I’m honestly really sorry Dylan but you have to admit that was an ICONIC underrated moment in Tengaged history
2. I used to be close friends with Kavalle who was the first to be a TV star in all 3 sites. The site died when she left. Prove me wrong.
3. When Moderators back in .es were removing full avatar designs, the moderators were cool enough to let me keep my Conseula avatar because it was funny.
4. I used to get perfect scores in GuitarTIW when people didn’t knew how to press all 5 keys at the same time. That was a keyboard talent.
5. I have always been myself despite how toxic the site can be. That is a true star in my point of view after 11 years. Many people change the moment they play a frookies and it’s pathetic.
Back in Old Tengaged with the different Spanish and Portuguese communities and the treatment with English players who enjoyed the users their more than .com? I was always told to go to back The Spanish site when I’m not from Spain, but enjoyed the community there. I never get it and never will. I remember English players would play on the other sites to get away from the toxic harassment from players.
Do people really get mad if you don’t have a connection and the conversation becomes ghosted? In all my games I never seen anyone like hunty be so pissed off after 5 messages it did not go anywhere. Yeah I had a life this weekend with my family and I was inactive during Day 1. Don’t devalue how I play privately with a couple players in the game while you talk to everyone. I do enjoy stirring the pot and be a lil dramatic. Honestly people will be mad if I don’t do shit and when I do play the game. Drama is a damn element in big brother. When the drama offends certain people who love it, they get so offended. Funny part is it had nothing to do with hunty so sit back and set yourself some boundaries. You have nomination buttons use them.
